New MSNBC Host Spews: Racist Conservatives Fear Obama Taking Money From 'White People'
Steve Kornacki, who will debut as a new MSNBC host on Monday, appeared on Hardball, Thursday, to smear conservative opposition to Eric Holder and Barack Obama as racist. Asked why some on the right oppose the attorney general, Kornacki derided the "caricature of Obama" as a "secret black radical" who is trying to "take away rights or...money from, you know, from white people."
Kornacki saw an "aspect of race and culture" to the conservative disdain. In a discussion of the Fast and Furious scandal, Kornacki simplified, "...You take, you know, prominent, you know, black lawyer and you put him in charge of the Obama Justice Department and I think that's, to you know, to people who sort of traffic in that sort of thing, you know, it really is kind of a lightening rod." [UPDATED with video below. MP3 audio here.]
Kornacki will be part of the team taking over for liberal Martin Bashir, who is moving to 4pm to replace Dylan Ratigan. Good to see MSNBC is replacing one leftist who smears conservatives with another.
A transcript of the exchange, which aired at 5:41pm EDT on June 21, can be found below:
MICHAEL SMERNCONISH: Steve, what drives the antipathy toward Eric Holder from the right? I mean, of all the cabinet members, I've noticed this and others have tracked it, it's Holder who is most perceived as the surrogate for Obama and who seems to incur the wrath of the harshest of criticism.
STEVE KORNACKI: Yeah. And, you know, look, I mean, you know, it can be uncomfortable to talk about this stuff, but I think you have to consider the possibility that there might be, sort of, you know, there might be an aspect of race and of culture to that. Because you have the Justice Department- Well, first of all, you have sort of, you know, the caricature of Obama that sort of gets sold on the right a lot is that he's this, sort of, secret black radical and he's looking to, sort of, um, you know, he's looking to sort of, maybe, take away rights or take away, you know, take away this, sort of, you know, money from, you know, from white people and redistribute it and that sort of thing. So, you take, you know, prominent, you know, black lawyer and you put him in charge of the Obama Justice Department and I think that's, you know, to people who sort of traffic in that sort of thing, you know, it really is kind of a lightening rod.

I wonder if any of these jokers had it occur to them that all of their ranting and screaming about "racism" is only alienating a good number of people who will wind up voting for Romney simply because they are getting sick and tired of being called "racist!" every 10 seconds?

Submitted by HoustonGirl on Thu, 06/21/2012 - 7:02pm.
BTW, Holder is under fire because he either created or approved of a program that was so horrendous that two American law enforcement officers lost their lives. Hundreds of Mexican citizens lost their lives. His intention was to blame gun shops so that the government could further regulate gun ownership against law-abiding American citizens. Added to that, he LIED to Congress. And now that the President has invoked executive privilege, one has to wonder what he has to hide as well. Any Congressman with a brain should investigate Holder. Holder is spitting in the faces of our Congress and is spitting in the faces of Americans as well.

Based on MSNBC's never-ending topic of blaming EVERYTHING on the racism of whites, I have to figure that the only people watching them are whites who pride themselves on not being 'those kind' and voted for Barack based solely on skin-color to prove they weren't 'those kind'. It's the only thing that makes sense and the only people who could bear to listen to it hour after hour.

Yes, it's disgusting, but I can't explain the need of Liberals to own an entire ethnic group.

Straight out of the lib tool box, project and accuse the opposition of accusing you of exactly what they are guilty of so that the opposition has to deny what you are guilty of doing.
1) secret black radical - check, appointing Van Jones, Anita Dunn, Lisa Jackson, etc to his administration, refusing to prosecute the New Black Panther Party pretty much confirms the obvious.
2) take away rights - check, F&F attempt to back door gun control, FCC attempts to regulate the internet in order to silence political opposition, etc...
3) take away money from you - check, demanding higher taxes, letting the Bush tax cuts expire in 2013 and refusing to stop billions in waste, fraud and abuse of taxpayer funds.
4) redistribute money from producers to non producers - check, non existent food stamp requirements, handing out government money to people who clearly don't need it because they earn over the poverty level.
Thank you Mr. Kornacki for being one of the few liberals to actually tell the truth, all be it in the most implausible way.
